“Whenever putting together a project I try to keep the grit of Raekwon’s ‘Only Built 4 Cuban Linx’ and Mobb Deep’s ‘The Infamous’ in mind” says 22 year old ChillxWill when discussing his new Almighty album with RESPECT. Mag’s Dread Solo. “When crafting the album I was trying to make sure you knew my story by the end. It is hand styles on trains at 2:00am. It is my story. Also, I recorded the whole album on 2″ tape to get that warmth, and vibration in the bass.” The album is critically acclaimed, and has been stirring up an ill buzz for the Tacoma, Washington emcee, and latest artist under Ill Adrenaline Records. He is apart of the BKR$CLB (Bakers Club) posse and works closely with Raz Fresco, who is simultaneously making big moves on the scene.

Almighty is now available on cd, cassette and digital download (two bonus records w/ purchase) with Underground Hip Hop and Fat Beats. Oh, but you’re a wax junkie? Place your vinyl order now at Chopped Herring Records.

Be prepared for a visual time machine taking you back to that grimy mid-90’s golden era we all miss – laced in vintage Fila, herb lit in Brooklyn project hallways and 40 ounces. With a drum pattern identical (or very similar) to Mobb Deep‘s 1996 classic Drop A Gem On ‘Em and a dusty bass line – it’s the perfect marriage. ChillxWill is taking you on a trip down memory lane in 2015. Though the original Warning record off this album is sharp, the remix by Mpadrum is raw and seemingly more suiting for this video. Below you can stream the whole album for free, with hopes that maybe it opens your eyes to a full purchase. Enjoy:

Chicago Talent Mo$ is dropping his mix-tape, entitled Thought Process on July 7th. He recently let loose two tracks: “Hunting Season” and “Warning”, both produced by RPXXXXXX that will keep you in bated breath until the release of the full tape. The artist simply “loves making music, that’s about it”, and proves it on this joint. No need for a “club banger to get noticed”. Give it a listen, you can follow him on twitter: here.

Uncle Murda dropped a new record today with help from Meek Mill and fellow New Yorker Cory Gunz.  “Paper Chase” doesn’t bang like “Warning” or “Ima Boss“, but the Philadelphia-New York connection is still in full effect.  It seems like anything MMG gets a hand on turn to gold, and to be fair this track does boast a dope hook.  “I’m about a dollar, shorty you should holla” is practically a motto to live by.  Check out the collaboration below.
